MOA Board of Directors: 2017 Election Results

Our BMW MOA 2017 election is over, and the results are in. Ballots were collected, counted, and reported by the independent firm of Renita M. Owens, CPA, LLC. of Greenville, South Carolina.

Congratulations to the two candidates elected to the Board of Directors. To those candidates not elected, thank you for being committed BMW MOA members willing to take the effort and do the legwork necessary to place your name on the ballot. Keep in mind, we run elections every year now in accordance with our bylaws.

Your chance to run again, along with all other BMW MOA members, will come around in less than 12 months. A total of 2,830 ballots were cast this year, up 573 (25.4 percent) from last year’s election.

The newly-elected board members will be seated at the 2017 BMW MOA International Rally. Once the full board is seated, the directors will elect the new officers for the BMW MOA, which will be announced at the rally.

Again, as Secretary of the MOA, I would personally like to thank the Election Committee, Chairman Tom Buttars from Iowa, and co-chairs Don Hamblin from Missouri and Dave Swider from California, for their continued hard work and dedication to the MOA in this important function of our club.
